If you think this is bad, you should check out the stunt page of a sleazy web hosting company called Globat. Their Defying Gravity Site is filled with lots of stupid people who do disturbing things for money. Example: Sponsoring a Gynecological Visit.

Lads, give us a call if you want to come up with something a bit more original...
